help Adata SE880 Pro FAQ
Does the ADATA SE880 Pro use Thunderbolt 3?
No. The SE880 family uses USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 over a USB-C connector, not Thunderbolt 3, even though both use the same physical connector shape.
What device is needed to reach the SE880's advertised 2,000 MB/s speed?
The computer needs a 20 Gbps USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 port and a suitably fast internal drive. A standard 10 Gbps USB-C port will restrict transfers to roughly half the interface bandwidth.
Will the ADATA SE880 run at full speed on a Mac?
Most Macs do not support USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 at 20 Gbps, even when they have Thunderbolt ports. The drive should still connect over USB, but speeds are commonly limited to the 10 Gbps range.
Can the SE880 be used with a PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series console?
It can serve as external USB storage on compatible consoles, but console rules still apply. A PS5 can store PS5 games on an external drive but runs them from its internal NVMe storage, while older compatible games can run externally.
